cruiser647 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Followed one of these this morning. (Usually see it going the other way in Wheathampstead). The geezer had sporty pipes on it (2 twins exits) Pulled up next to him, on a junction and he pulled away. Lovely burbling sound they make! What a fine engine!

felixthecat1 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I thought they came with quad zorsts as standard. I've only ever seen two and they both had them. Lovely car though, I just worry about selling it when you're done. Unless you're a VW fan you aint gonna wanna touch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v15ben Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Could be a good buy when the depreciation is over. They will only be about £20 after its all over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks well chav IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si_GTi Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 I've only ever seen one, a saloon in kind of a gunmetal grey/green colour on the M6. Looked really nice IMO, the usual subtle street sleeper kind of look, only those exhausts and the W8 badge give the game away really. Bet it goes well though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'd have one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v15ben Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Amazingly I have only seen one in Australia, country of cheap fuel and big engined saloons! It sounded nice but not as good as the V8s out here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallachie Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 PNSI Traffic branch have 2 unmarked W8's, which I see nearly every time I'm on the M2 towards Belfast. Both are estates, one black and one blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
